鬼火焚き

I went to AIRA to see the big bonfire "ONIBITAKI" with members of GAIGO.

The local people said it is the biggest one in Japan.

It was really big , tall and it had a big mask of a demon.

Before lightting the fire, four people each launched one arrow with fire at the demon.

The bamboo tower and the mask burned up in no time and then many sparks bugun to fall down.

People fled from them and I also escaped.

However, my down jacket got burned. I have to buy a new one.

After that, we had a dinner at Mr. Arikawa's house.

The house's shape was octagon.

It was good architecture.

We had a good and warm time on such a cold night.
